I created an array under files. Inserted the Array, Json and AJAX objects. Then, put an on layout load action from AJAX to Request Project File from the array file I created at first. And I am supposed to I think use the parse action from the JSON object somehow?

No, if your file type is "array", you don't need the JSON object. After requesting the file with AJAX, load it into the Array object:

NECRONOMICRON It doesn't work that well, and starts lagging terribly with a large number of moving objects. My physics example works a lot smoother.

Yes, booleans are cumbersome to work with in Construct. I suggest using number variables instead - 0 for false, 1 for true.

destroying off-screen objects

You don't have to do it if you plan to re-use these objects. Just disable their behaviors.

Try searching the forum, there have been many posts about this. I don't think there is a definite solution, but you might find some useful tips.

There are also virtual keyboards you can try instead of the system one.

You need relative paths in JSON.Get() expression - JSON.Get(".d"), JSON.Get(".t")

So you basically need to process all cells on the board in a random order, correct?

You can create a single permutation table for all cells.

-> AdvancedRandom: Create permutation with board_size^2 values starting at 0

+ System: For "n" from 0 to board_size^2
-> System: Set randomRow to AdvancedRandom.Permutation( loopindex("n"))%board_size
-> System: Set randomColumn to int(AdvancedRandom.Permutation( loopindex("n"))÷board_size)

Run the project in Debug Mode (Shift+F4) and check:

1. That in layout 2 the dictionary still contains the saved data.

2. That EqSlot sprites have the correct values in their SlotType variables.

I agree, it’s all over the place. Some behaviors don’t even have an "Enabled" property or action (e.g. NoSave). Others, like Fade, have the property, but no way to change it at runtime.
